How Growth Mindset Can Change Your Life: Book Insights on Mindset by Carol Dweck Book Insights Podcast
-
- Education
* Carol Dweck's Mindset: The New Psychology of Success is a very influential book in the field of social psychology.
* It contrasts the ‘fixed’ mindset with the ‘growth’ mindset. With a growth mindset, we see our natural traits or abilities simply as a starting point, and through experience, effort and learning move towards what we want to do or be.
* Our IQ or personality form part of our potential only, rather than restricting us. Life is about the excitement of wondering how far we can go by developing our interests and skills to the max. If the fixed mindset sees our qualities as carved in stone, the growth mindset sees them as a moveable feast.
* Each puts us on quite different paths of thought and action. Dweck’s research shows how the unspoken beliefs we have can affect our chances for self-confidence, happiness and success.
